RotationForestClassifier

class RotationForestClassifier(n_estimators=200, min_group=3, max_group=3, remove_proportion=0.5, base_estimator=None, time_limit_in_minutes=0.0, contract_max_n_estimators=500, save_transformed_data='deprecated', n_jobs=1, random_state=None)

A rotation forest (RotF) vector classifier.

Implementation of the Rotation Forest classifier described [1]. Builds a forest of trees build on random portions of the data transformed using PCA.

Intended as a benchmark for time series data and a base classifier for transformation based appraoches such as ShapeletTransformClassifier, this aeon implementation only works with continuous attributes.

Parameters:

n_estimatorsint, default=200

Number of estimators to build for the ensemble.

min_groupint, default=3

The minimum size of an attribute subsample group.

max_groupint, default=3

The maximum size of an attribute subsample group.

remove_proportionfloat, default=0.5

The proportion of cases to be removed per group.

base_estimatorBaseEstimator or None, default=”None”

Base estimator for the ensemble. By default, uses the sklearn DecisionTreeClassifier using entropy as a splitting measure.

time_limit_in_minutesint, default=0

Time contract to limit build time in minutes, overriding n_estimators. Default of 0 means n_estimators is used.

contract_max_n_estimatorsint, default=500

Max number of estimators to build when time_limit_in_minutes is set.

save_transformed_databool, default=False

Save the data transformed in fit.

Deprecated and will be removed in v0.8.0. Use fit_predict and fit_predict_proba to generate train estimates instead. transformed_data_ will also be removed.

n_jobsint, default=1

The number of jobs to run in parallel for both fit and predict. -1 means using all processors.

random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, default=None

If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator; If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator; If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used by np.random.

Attributes:

classes_list

The unique class labels in the training set.

n_classes_int

The number of unique classes in the training set.

n_cases_int

The number of train cases in the training set.

n_atts_int

The number of attributes in the training set.

estimators_list of shape (n_estimators) of BaseEstimator

The collections of estimators trained in fit.

Methods

fit(X, y)	Fit a forest of trees on cases (X,y), where y is the target variable.
fit_predict(X, y)	Fit a forest of trees and estimate predictions of the input.
fit_predict_proba(X, y)	Fit a forest of trees and estimate probabilities of the input.
get_metadata_routing()	Get metadata routing of this object.
get_params([deep])	Get parameters for this estimator.
predict(X)	Predict for all cases in X.
predict_proba(X)	Probability estimates for each class for all cases in X.
set_params(**params)	Set the parameters of this estimator.

fit(X, y)

Fit a forest of trees on cases (X,y), where y is the target variable.

Parameters:

X2d ndarray or DataFrame of shape = [n_cases, n_attributes]

The training data.

yarray-like, shape = [n_cases]

The class labels.

Returns:

self

Reference to self.

Notes

Changes state by creating a fitted model that updates attributes ending in “_”.

predict(X) → ndarray

Predict for all cases in X. Built on top of predict_proba.

Parameters:

X2d ndarray or DataFrame of shape = [n_cases, n_attributes]

The data to make predictions for.

Returns:

yarray-like, shape = [n_cases]

Predicted class labels.

predict_proba(X) → ndarray

Probability estimates for each class for all cases in X.

Parameters:

X2d ndarray or DataFrame of shape = [n_cases, n_attributes]

The data to make predictions for.

Returns:

yarray-like, shape = [n_cases, n_classes_]

Predicted probabilities using the ordering in classes_.

fit_predict(X, y) → ndarray

Fit a forest of trees and estimate predictions of the input.

fit_predict produces prediction estimates using just the train data. The output is found using out-of-bag (OOB) estimates from the forest.

Parameters:

X2d ndarray or DataFrame of shape = [n_cases, n_attributes]

The training data.

yarray-like, shape = [n_cases]

The class labels.

Returns:

yarray-like, shape = [n_cases]

Predicted class labels.

fit_predict_proba(X, y) → ndarray

Fit a forest of trees and estimate probabilities of the input.

fit_predict produces prediction probability estimates using just the train data. The output is found using out-of-bag (OOB) estimates from the forest.

Parameters:

X2d ndarray or DataFrame of shape = [n_cases, n_attributes]

The training data.

yarray-like, shape = [n_cases]

The class labels.

Returns:

yarray-like, shape = [n_cases, n_classes_]

Predicted probabilities using the ordering in classes_.

get_metadata_routing()

Get metadata routing of this object.

Please check User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

Returns:

routingMetadataRequest

A MetadataRequest encapsulating routing information.

get_params(deep=True)

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters:

deepbool, default=True

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns:

paramsdict

Parameter names mapped to their values.

set_params(**params)

Set the parameters of this estimator.

The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as Pipeline). The latter have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.

Parameters:

**paramsdict

Estimator parameters.

Returns:

selfestimator instance

Estimator instance.
